zosiablue 's review for:

The Woman in the Mirror by Rebecca James
3.5
dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Really pleasant and solid gothic that reminded me of Turn of the Screw crossed with Jane Eyre with a sprinkle of the movie The Holiday. Ghosts, murder, small town romance, scary twin, foggy cliffs looking over a misty sea, and a creepy-ass ending. The romantic drama in the modern chapters got unbalanced, but that's fine. Good atmosphere.
